The midfielder played 32 out of his club's 34 matches for the season - he was rested for two FA Cup games. He scored the second goal, a beautiful long range strike from outside the box, in a 3-1 win over Bechem United, and he was instrumental in midfield, where he sets the tempo of the game for the Phobians, and has provided five assists from 30 games.
He has been the go-to-man for the two coaches of Accra Hearts of Oak. Essuman was very influential in coach Kenichi Yatsuhashi's set-up and he continued to remain a big figure under Portuguese trainer Sergio Traguil, who was sacked before the season ended.
Essuman scored one of the best goals ever scored at the Accra Sports Stadium in a Peace Cup match with Asante Kotoko in September, 2016.
The Phobians were on the verge of losing again to their arch-rivals, and were trailing 2-1, when Essuman met a headed clearance from a corner kick on the volley from 30 yards. He tailored the ball without it touching the ground into the top, top, top corner to help Hearts snatch a draw in the Peace Cup.
